About BCPSAN

The BC Public Service Alumni Network was originally launched as the BC Law Enforcement Network in 2009 to bring together BC graduates who work in the challenging field of law enforcement. Founding co-chairs were Ellen Duffy '04 and John Griffin '91. In 2016 the Network's name was changed to the Public Safety Alumni Network to expand membership and foster cross-sector collaboration and communication between all professionals involved in public safety. In 2019 the name was changed once more to the Public Service Alumni Network to include a much wider BC audience who work in government service of all kinds, from elected and appointed officials to all federal, state and local government employees.  BC has a long history of producing government public servants that aim to better the human condition. This group brings them together to engage in conversations that seek solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.
